+
+Routine Description:
+
+ The WaitForTick() function waits for the number of ticks specified by
+ TickNumber from a known time source in the platform. If TickNumber of
+ ticks are detected, then EFI_SUCCESS is returned. The actual time passed
+ between entry of this function and the first tick is between 0 and
+ TickPeriod 100 nS units. If you want to guarantee that at least TickPeriod
+ time has elapsed, wait for two ticks. This function waits for a hardware
+ event to determine when a tick occurs. It is possible for interrupt
+ processing, or exception processing to interrupt the execution of the
+ WaitForTick() function. Depending on the hardware source for the ticks, it
+ is possible for a tick to be missed. This function cannot guarantee that
+ ticks will not be missed. If a timeout occurs waiting for the specified
+ number of ticks, then EFI_TIMEOUT is returned.
+
+Arguments:
+
+ This - The EFI_METRONOME_ARCH_PROTOCOL instance.
+
+ TickNumber - Number of ticks to wait.
+
+Returns:
+
+ EFI_SUCCESS - The wait for the number of ticks specified by TickNumber
+ succeeded.
+
+ EFI_TIMEOUT - A timeout occurred waiting for the specified number of ticks.

+/*++
+
+ Protocol Description:
+ This protocol provides access to a known time source in the platform to the
+ core. The core uses this known time source to produce core services that
+ require calibrated delays.
+
+ Parameters:
+
+ WaitForTick - Waits for a specified number of ticks from a known time source
+ in the platform. The actual time passed between entry of this
+ function and the first tick is between 0 and TickPeriod 100 nS
+ units. If you want to guarantee that at least TickPeriod time
+ has elapsed, wait for two ticks.
+
+ TickPeriod - The period of platform's known time source in 100 nS units.
+ This value on any platform must be at least 10 uS, and must not
+ exceed 200 uS. The value in this field is a constant that must
+ not be modified after the Metronome architectural protocol is
+ installed. All consumers must treat this as a read-only field.
